What it does

What you get back

Takes a single finished doodle and gives it an anime action beat without redrawing it: the same marker line and flat colours, now clenching a fist and powering up. Expect hand-drawn shonen cues — a glowing aura, radial speed lines, one high-contrast impact frame at the peak, then a springy settle — with a near-still camera. This is an anime STYLE, not any named character or series. Costs one credit per second of clip, renders in the background, and arrives in the chat about a minute after you ask.

When the agent picks it

Use when the user wants their doodle to POWER UP — "anime power-up", "make my doodle charge up energy", "add speed lines and an impact frame", "give it a glowing aura". The picture they point at becomes frame one, then erupts into a shonen-style action beat: energy aura, speed lines, a held impact frame. Anime STYLE, not any named character. Not for a brand-new scene starring the character: that is doodle-starcast.

Doodle Power-Up

Animate ONE image the user already has into a shonen-anime-style action beat. That image is the clip’s first frame, so the output is that exact drawing powering up — not a new interpretation of it.

This skill is an anime style, never an anime character. You animate the user’s own doodle with shonen action cues (energy aura, speed lines, an impact frame). Do not turn it into, or reference, any named character, series or studio.

When this is the right skill

Pick this when the user points at their doodle and wants energy and action:

  • “make my doodle power up” / “anime power-up” / “make it charge up”
  • “add speed lines and an impact frame”
  • “give it a glowing energy aura”

Choose doodle-starcast instead when the user wants a NEW shot starring the character — a transformation sequence, a scene they are not already in. The test is the same as motion vs reel: if the request describes something not already in the picture, it is a starcast, not a spark.

If there is no image yet, make one first with the right image skill, show it, and only then offer to power it up.

What to animate

The frame is fixed, so what you are choosing is the ACTION:

  • one clear power-up beat — a fist clench into an energy flare, a determined set of the jaw, a burst of aura
  • hand-drawn shonen cues: radial speed lines, one held impact frame at the peak, hair and clothing lifting in the updraft
  • a background that stays a calm flat wash so the drawn effects read

Keep it to one beat. A doodle trying to power up three times in five seconds reads as a glitch, not as impact.

How to run it

  1. Confirm you have the image URL to animate — usually the doodle generated a moment ago in this conversation, otherwise the user’s attached photo. If you have neither, ask; do not call the tool.
  2. Call generateVideo with skill: "spark", that URL as imageUrl, and a short description of the action if the user named one.
  3. Pass seconds whenever the user names a length. If you omit it the clip is 5 seconds. It costs 1 credit per second, so never quietly pick 15.
  4. The tool returns status: "queued" and a jobId. That means the clip is RENDERING, not ready. Say so in one line — roughly a minute, it will appear here on its own, it has sound — and then stop.

What not to do

  • Do NOT name or depict a character, series, studio or artist. This is a style (“shonen action”, “energy aura”, “speed lines”), not a cast.
  • Do NOT call the tool again for the same request while a clip is rendering, and do not call it to “check” on one. The finished clip is delivered on its own.
  • Do NOT claim the clip is ready, describe what it looks like, or offer a download link. You have not seen it.
  • Do NOT promise a resolution, a frame rate or a silent clip. Clips render at 480p and always carry an audio track.
